Waldorf, MN Crawlspace Given Refresh

Caitlin, a resident of Waldorf, MN, realized that her crawl space needed some attention. Crawl space insulation is important, as a number of comfort and energy problems are caused by inadequate or incorrect crawl space insulation. Specifically, with musty smells, mold, and moisture issues, Caitlin decided she needed to call American Waterworks for a FREE Estimate. Our Design Specialist, Eric, headed to the property to inspect the crawl space.

Following the inspection, Eric made his recommendations and answered all questions, and an appointment was made to implement solutions.

Our Foreman and his crew began the project by clearing debris and readying the spaces for installation. They then installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier to address water Issues. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof plastic barrier that gets installed right onto the problem walls and works to catch water entering the space through cracks and holes in the wall. This also reduces the home's chances of being exposed to radon. Next the team added our SmartDrain, which helps fully waterproof the crawl space. The crew also used spray foam to seal and waterproof the homeowner's crawl space. Our spray foam is designed to keep the heat inside and prevent cool air from coming in. Finally, our team added an Aprilaire dehumidifier, which creates healthy air and can reduce the number of viable viruses in the air to less than 1% in two days when set to 50% relative humidity. Now, Caitlin's crawlspace is protected, and we improved her peace of mind.
